At my age I just assume anything I don't know is sexual.

Don't you come "bussin' no cap" at me young man, I'm happily married.

It's clearly sexual from the context of the meme. Pretty much any time this happens, it's sexual in nature. Otherwise it would just be confusing rather than presented as humorous.

Nyeah... partly.

If that were entirely true, a "power bottom" would make no sense.

The terms sexual usage originated in gay circles where it only delineates who penetrates and who gets penetrated. Traditional views on sex ascribe a submissive or passive role to the bottom and an active or dominating role to the top, but you can totally have a power bottom who takes control and an active role in the intercourse but is the one getting penetrated.

I got both the meaning you mention and the sexual meaning

I'm assuming boner here means mistake but actual boners can be mistakes sometimes and lead to unintended consequences

I half remember being told this originally came from bonehead. so like a bonehead would make a mistake like that. which then got shortened to boner.

She got one upped, outdone, lost to her rival, and now needs to take it in ass again from her.

I've seen the source, it's all true. That's why they eventually formed a poly triangle with Archie, and, occasionally, The Predator.

Well, mayhap I stand corrected.

Of course, it's comics so it could just as easily be another Riverdale canon they're colliding with that just looks like the show and is exactly like it except the couple things they changed....

the same one, but it's used in a sexual context. Being the top is being the dominant one on a relationship, sexually speaking.

This apparently changed around the same time people stopped using "Give 'em the high hard one".

As another example, the man isn’t queer at all.
